My Ultimate Compilation CD by Philip Caren
1) Waiting for my real life to begin – Colin Hay…..so full of hope & equally so hopeless, It sums up how I feel at times!
2) The life and times of the clerkenwell Kid – the real Tuesday welds – this is so cool, it’s hard not to move to this but so quirky.
3) Beyond the Sun –Billy McKenzie – I can’t say anything but I love this.
4) They Vanish –Adrian Johnston – this was from the BBC film Gideon’s daughter….just a top film.
5) One Caress – Depeche Mode…..what a torch song!
6) Serendipity – Richard Lumsden- How I feel about my wife.
7) Not the girl you think you are –Crowded House…..it reminds me of the people we are in work, at home…so many different people don’t see the real us and I like that.
8) Blowers daughter – Damien Rice – Closer by Patrick Marber, I wish I could write plays!!
9) Elegy for Dunkirk (Atonement) –Dario Marianeli – poignant sequence in the film that combines the music with Hymn Lord & Father of creation.
10) Ashes to Ashes – David Bowie…..what it was to be 14.
11) 22: the death of all the Romance – the dears – love this for it’s innocence & feels quite raw, like young love.
12) Windmills of your mind –Noel Harrison….one of the first songs I can remember and I love the way the lyrics seem to circle.
